According to BillA's experiences... who knows since he says in one sentence that in his testing it did not make a difference and later that his designes use thin bolts made off low conductivity material (compared to copper), sooo....
Being serious, it all depends on at what level of performance you are at/aiming for. To tier of extreme cooling madmen by elimination of number of these 'small' losses are able to performa 'miraculous' efficiency improvements
EDIT: You know that thermal transfer ratio depends proportional on dT. dT between hot and cold sides is arounbd 50C = substantial nuff to make a difference imho
